Jalen McMillan News
Friday, March 13, 2:19 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan had his 2025 season largely derailed after he suffered a neck injury in preseason action that caused him to miss 13 games. Upon his return, the 24-year-old recorded 12 catches for 178 yards on 15 targets across Tampa Bay's final four contests of the regular season. However, McMillan could be well-positioned for a bounce-back year in 2026. Longtime stalwart Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans signed with the San Francisco 49ers in free agency, opening the door for McMillan to carve out a regular role alongside Tampa Bay wideouts Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin Jr. McMillan flashed significant upside as a rookie in 2024, hauling in 37 catches for 461 yards and eight touchdowns on 58 targets across 13 games. With Godwin Jr. battling injuries and age-related decline in recent years, McMillan could emerge as the WR2 in Tampa Bay as soon as next season. His dynasty value should be trending upwards following the departure of Evans from Tampa Bay.

Jalen Coker News
Sunday, March 22, 6:00 PM
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker missed six games last year, but when healthy, he has shown that he can produce fantasy-relevant results. The 24-year-old stepped up as the Panthers' No. 2 receiver behind Tetairoa McMillan, and in doing so, he seemed to pass Xavier Legette on the depth chart. Coker averaged 3.7 catches, 46.9 yards, and 0.4 touchdowns per game from Week 11 through Week 18, ranking as the WR26 in PPR leagues during that span. He continued his explosive outburst with nine catches, 134 yards, and one touchdown in the Panthers' lone playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams. Coker has defied the odds as a 2024 undrafted free agent and is blossoming into a low-end WR3/flex for fantasy football purposes. Coker's slow first half of the 2025 season obscured his final stat line, so managers might have an opportunity to buy low on him in dynasty fantasy football. Managers should send out trade offers to acquire the 24-year-old ahead of a potentially significant breakout campaign in 2026.
